The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven)

Chapter 455

Zane explained, "Tinsley happened to be at home when she overheard what Chloe said, and she thought it was ridiculous. Plus, my mom was indeed convinced. After Chloe left, Tinsley immediately sat down with my mom to reason with her. "She told my mom not to believe Chloe's words. My mom was finally convinced after a long conversation. After she was completely convinced and had given up on going after you, Tinsley called me to inform me what had happened." Zane gently traced his thumb along my face and continued, "Ever since you came into my life, it feels like everything that happens to me is good."

I didn't argue and lifted my head to look at him. "So you'd better cherish me," I said seriously.

Zane cupped my face with both hands and slowly leaned in for a kiss. His warm lips pressed against mine.

I closed my eyes, enjoying the kiss.

Zane whispered in my ear, "It wasn't easy for me to get you. I'll definitely not let you go."

Zane didn't want to follow in Steven's footsteps. Therefore, he was determined to address any potential issues between him and Annalise.
